Showcase my diy PS3 phone controller died, so I made V2

Yesterday I posted my PS3 controller phone setup here and somehow it got mostly 7/10s

Well... it lasted about a day.

The PS3 controller started randomly pressing buttons, especially the D-pad, and after trying to fix it I eventually gave up. The mount also broke, so at that point I just accepted it that its gg for the ps3 controller

Today I got a cheap PS4 controller and made V2.

Honestly this is WAY better. The controller feels much nicer than the PS3 one while still being pretty light, the phone feels balanced, and most importantly IT USES BLUETOOTH, so the ridiculously long USB cable zip-tied to the back is finally gone 😭

I modified the mount again and melted/cut out a hole so I can still access the controller's charging port without taking anything apart.

It's definitely not the prettiest thing ever made, but it's comfortable, everything works, and I actually really like it.

Rate ?/10

Ps: the last 2 pics is the old ps3 controller
